Not when first encountered it. It was all or nothing. And the toolbar is hidden! WTF?
That and the replacement didn't do the basic thing that WMP did, which was index all the music on my network drive and make it available to browse and place. Maybe it does. Maybe its in a hidden menu somewhere. I remember it trying to sell me stuff FFS.
Music playing software was way ahead of cell phones with dissapearing headphone jacks in terms of technology that gets worse over time.
I stuck with WMP (when using windows) because it plays music and rips to mp3. I don't need it to do more. The windows 10 replacement was a nightmare because it consumes the whole screen in some tablet-mode nonsense.
I could use any of many media players, but I don't really care. Being familiar with where the play button is and how to get to the playlists is handy.
It's not a function of age, it's a function of not giving a shit.
There are already online, mail order pharmacies. So how is it illegal? My own employer insurance tries to push me to use their preferred mail order vendor, I presume because someone is getting a kickback.
The problem with them is that they are incredibly shit in every way so no one wants to use them.
Amazon is demonstrably good at selling and delivering stuff. An online pharmacy that didn't suck would be a good thing.
I welcome our Amazon drug selling overlords. First prescriptions, next recreationals!
Every time I go to a pharmacy, they make you wait 15-30 minutes after giving them the prescription, to force you to walk around their shop so you might buy more stuff. I would much prefer to get them delivered Amazon style than waste my time at a pharmacy.
However much bigger disruption would happen if you could mail order them from abroad at the much lower prices they are outside the US.
It's almost like you're trying to be bad here editor.
Pro tip - go into settings and shut off wifi or bluetooth if you don't want to use it or you're that concerned about security.
The new kinda-off mode is exactly what I need. I turn the wifi off because some bastard has put up an open AP with a closed internet behind it (E.G. Comcast) and the phone connects to it opportunistically and then looses internet connectivity because it's send packets into the void.
I turn it off to stop it connecting to bad APs. I want it to turn back on if I'm at work or home or Starbucks where I don't want it using up my contract data balance because there's working wifi.
They already exist. In fact, I don't know why the marketing department decide to sell it as "killing off the 3.5 mm jack" when "the jack is moving to a common accessory" would have prevented most complaints/arguments.
If there were two usb-c/lightening ports, then that would be almost fine.
But there's only one. So as with the iPhone, if you want to charge and listen at the same time with the accessories available the last time I went into an Apple store, you need two accessories. A port doubler (two lightenings in the case of apple) and a 3.5 jack adaptor. This is a major mess compared to what went before which was one port for charging and a jack for listening. I have yet to see a usb-c 3.5 jack+charging adaptor in any store.
So I have a decent job, I can afford whatever phone I want and I travel on planes. I've already hit the dongle hell on my last transatlantic trip with an iPhone7+. The headphone jack has become a buy/no-buy issue for me through direct experience of living without one.
Any change in marketing verbiage wouldn't alter this.
>That applies to YOUR papers. If your employer paid you to sit in their office and use their computer to write something for their use about their research, it may be their paper. Your right would be getting the pay check.
I am talking loosely about the papers I have authored. Yes my employer pays me to sit in an office and do stuff. They also agreed to let me (and indeed encouraged me) to submit papers to journals to describe results. The reason for submitting to journals is to make the information available.
Having those papers then locked behind extremely expensive paywalls is counter to the interests of the company who paid for it, the authors who did the work and wrote it, the unpaid reviewers who checked it and the people who would like to read it. We are moderately picky about picking journals that have open access but there are no company imposed rules concerning that.
If the paper is also available through scihub, then the interests of all those people are better met.
You know what i've never seen anyone say, but that's sad/true? As someone who has access to journals legally, it's actually -easier- to find the articles i'm looking for through scihub a lot of the time.. how sad is that?
It's easier for me to find my own papers through scihub than through journals.
Sci-Hub was made aware of the legal proceedings but did not appear in court.
That's your answer right there.
Sci-Hub was stupid.
If you were made aware that there were legal proceedings against you, in outer-crapistan, where lawyers cost much more than they do at home, would you choose to ignore it since you don't care about outer-crapistan, or would you bankrupt yourself paying international lawyers?

You're selling it a lot better than Microsoft did.

Is is bad that I read the title as:
Tokyo Preparing For Foods 'Beyond Anything We've Seen'
?
Bladerunner is a proper noun.
Blade runner is a noun and a verb.
One word:

That's three words

I have VLC. It has a horrible UI for playing music. I don't use WMP online.
I don't have a problem that needs solving by removing WMP.

Audiophiles think they know the difference
There, fixed that for you.
They think they can. Self delusion is easy.
Bluetooth does not (and never will) have the bandwidth for the higher resolution audio files (flac for one)..
And neither do your ears in any normal environment.

A limit of 10,000 users for all the Edge users on Android should be plenty.

You have freedom for your own political speech, not freedom to violate someone else's rights - in this case copyrights granted by government.
Am I free to get a copy of these scientific papers, and make a recording of them, and put that recording on YouTube?
I won't object if you do that with my papers.
